what clients are saying

“I learned how some of my traits may feed into behavior patterns that are not desired from my children. Now I have some tools to help myself!”

–      Anna, mother of 2

“I am so grateful to Katherine for the safe environment she brought to the parenting classes. I had been the authoritarian parent with my daughters but now I understand a more democratic approach and have so many useful, respectful tools that I can use with my children to create a more harmonious, healthy, firm and kind environment in my home!"

–      Ofelia, mother of 4

“Thanks so much for bringing your workshop to our staff! Great information, loved the handouts and appreciate having something to reference back to. The staff enjoyed the opportunities for discussion and loved learning about their different discipline styles.”

- M. Doran, Chief Operations Officer

Boys & Girls Clubs of Sonoma Valley

Bringing Positive Discipline to our school deeply shifted its culture in my opinion. The program gives parents tools to work with their children in a respectful and constructive way, minimizing conflict and reshaping family dynamics. There were many “Aha!” moments as parents had insights into why they may have been struggling with bedtime, homework, TV and the like. They left each session empowered and encouraged to try new strategies to improve the quality of their relationship.”Ms. Llodrá has an excellent grasp of the Positive Discipline program and has such strong interpersonal skills that she connected deeply with parents in both languages. Her approach is gentle and compassionate as parents look at their own thinking and behaviors in raising their children. The parents loved her and were enthusiastic about attending classes as well as doing their “homework” (practicing strategies at home). They came to each session eager to report on their success!”

“The most significant idea that I got from Katherine’s workshop is that solutions often come from children and to be consistent about family meetings to have a “safe time” for resolving issues.”

–      Sean, father of 2

“I loved the group exercises- It gave me a chance to really experiment with using the tools.”

–      Ruben, father of 3

“This workshop has been very helpful and empowering as a parent and these classes have made me really aware of how to help my son and myself in various situations.”

–     Gigi, mother of 1 child

“Thank you again for offering the class.  The Mindfulness and Positive Parenting concepts work so well together and I found the tools you presented to be extremely powerful.  I wish I had learned these concepts earlier!”

–      Janine, mother of 2
